Text To Speech
Many case studies on the subject of text to speech confirm that the ability of struggling readers and writers to hear text has a direct positive impact on reading and writing skill development. Students who hear their writing read back to them listen for proper word choice and sentence structure. Listening to text develops stronger sight/word recognition and increases vocabulary. Additionally, students who hear their text are far more likely to engage in critical editing and revision steps. They're more engaged in their writing and are more motivated to write.
